SPP May Mingle

I recently came across this fun fold for cards and it's super easy to do.  The hardest part of making the card is definitley not the folding part...of me it's the decorating!!!  For this month's ScorPalPals Mingle, we had to make a Congratulations card.

CMC Challenge - White

I finally found a minute...well maybe a bit more...to do the current challenge over at Colour Me Creative.  The challenge this time around was to use the inspiration photo and make a card that was mostly white.  I found this a little bit difficult.  I have seen so many amazing projects done this way and I really wanted to give it a try.  For this card, I'm also using Fancy Marci from La-La Land Crafts, this is the first time colouring one of their great stamps.  So, thanks for looking!!!

I sure hope you can see the glitter on the top of her dress and the trim.

Christmas All Year Long - May

Well, the sun is finally shining and Sring has arrived and today I have a Christmas Card to share.  It's time for the Magnolia-licious Yahoo Group Christmas All Year Long Blog Hop.  I wanted to get my card done a little bit early so I worked on it last week.  I think this paper is really fun and the pink is so bright.

Today we make a really fun Never Ending card.  I have made this type of card before, but the dimensions for this card were slightly different.  When making this card we used several different techniques.  It was lots of fun to make.

This month at Stampin' Club we made some really fun cards.  The exciting part about this month was being introduced to the Triple Layer Punch.  WOW...it's so much fun!!!  It makes me curious if they are going to come out with more of these.  We also played with the new Postage Punch and Pretty Postage Stamp set as well as the new embossing folder.
